For easy multi-platform development.
Here at DuckMa, mobile apps are developed natively. By utilizing the Android and iOS SDKs we can tap into the maximum potential of each platform which enables us to satisfy any of our customers' requirements. While offering a lot of benefits, native development has one major downside: everything needs to be developed twice, once for each platform. Therefore, during the last decade, a lot of companies developed different technologies to provide their unified SDK for easy multi-platform development. Some examples include PhoneGap by Adobe, Xamarin by Microsoft, React Native by Facebook and the latest of the group: Flutter by Google.

Have they offered to develop your mobile application with a turnkey contract? Or maybe you asked for this, due to budget restrictions? Both of these are possible and real scenarios.
In our experience, what happens most often is that a client reaches out to us asking to develop an app while staying within the budget that the company has set up for that year.
Sure, there are people that do this, just like there are people that look for a good compromise, but we try to avoid working with turnkey contracts, and here’s why.

Elements to consider
You are considering getting a mobile application for your company. Nothing strange there: a lot of your competitors probably already have one, just as hundreds of thousands of other companies in the world.
When you are trying to find out who to reach out to for the development of your app, usually you go around asking colleagues and acquaintances for help or suggestions, you go to Google and you ask for estimates. Nothing strange here either. But there is a question that always lurks in the background: “How can tell the difference between a high quality app and a low quality one? Can I trust that a higher price will guarantee me a better product?”
Certainly price on its own is not a great indicator of a mobile app’s quality because there are a lot of aspects to take into consideration, in addition to the cost.
